Cryptography-Enabled 32-bit MCU adds security to IoT devices.

Supplied in 144-WFBGA package, CEC1302 (Part No. CEC1302D-SZ-C0) allows for pre-boot authentication of system firmware to ensureÂ- it is untouched and uncorrupted. ThisÂ- preventsÂ- such attacks as man-in-the-middle, denial-of-service, and backdoor vulnerabilities. Also, MCU can be used to authenticate any firmware updates and therebyÂ- protect system from malware or memory...
